This is a one man band. I do mostly guitar centered stuff both acoustic and electric. I'm very fond of instrumentals in the vain of Satriani and similar, but I also like simple straight rock like ACDC.
Many, mostly blues players or instrumentalists:
Joe Satriani
Eddie Van Halen
Angus Young
Billy Gibbons
Paul Gilbert
John Petrucci
Gibson SG, Toneport or Mesa Boogie Express 5:50
I also use a Cort Strat I bought for 100 bucks and it's actually pretty decent.
